Two, three, and four.

Perhaps they're recruiting new developers through Dice.com?

Kuro5hin is announcing a cloud storage service.

Without knowing what those 4y/o machines are like, let me just suggest doing the math on shipping them down there and their ongoing power consumption, as well as checking into parts availability.

You could implement your own damn internets, if you wanted to, with blackjack and hookers. Whether anyone would come to it is another question entirely, but you could build it if you wanted to.

Why on earth did they choose to do this based on race rather than poverty?

The new weather satalites will access The Cloud to speed deployment and reduce support costs.

...when Netcraft confirms it.

They're just jealous cus you ain't no goddamn sonofabitch.
